How I feel reading smut while being scared of intimacy in real life

God I love “We’re enemies, but we’ve been enemies for a long time, which is sort of like being friends.” Great trope.

the world is running out of glassblowers and yet you want to become a fucking doctor

One of the most jarring moments of my university education was in a physics class when I was given a device that measures gravity and was told “this cost the university sixteen thousand dollars, but the only glass blower in the world who could make the glass springs inside it died so it’s literally irreplaceable. If you drop it those springs will shatter. Go fuck around with it for a day and take some measurements”

If you are truly interested in becoming a scientific glassblower, Salem Community College in New Jersey has a 2 year associates degree program for it, and if you actually complete it, you’re practically guaranteed a job in the field if you want one.

The program is amazing. I spent a year in that program before getting into an MFA program. If you really want to learn how to flamework glass, there is no better place to do so IMO.

A weird quirk about that program is that it also attracts a number of pipe makers (at least when I went there in the mid 2010s).

10/10 would definitely recommend.
